• Resumen

  • Moved by the Brazilian musician Guinga composition “Meu Pai” (my father), we established a symbiotic relationship between the concepts of life (biography), place (city of Rio de Janeiro) and music. The analysis of “Meu Pai” is a synthesis and a pretext for reflecting on what art does to an artist and those who absorb it. In our theoretical framework, we rely primarily on James Carey (2009) and Gaston Bachelard (1957/1996). As a guide for this journey, we chose Guinga. He leads the journey. His circumstance takes us in an essay that has movement as its axis.
